Quick Analysis: Mage changes and Final Fantasy Tradition.

Inb4 lolQake.

I think FF13 was the first FF game where debuffs were worth their use in many scenarios.

Spells like Slep, Rub, Qake, Bane, Zap!, and XXXX.
Or Poison... It seemed like encounters weren't built around the party using these to stop the enemy. Versus a twofold spell like Virus that deals damage and quickly depletes life.

Qake has already arrived!

Unless you're looking for an lolQake, in which case... I have no appropriate response.
